Dutch Shepherd Forum

I thought I'd try to inject some humor into my return, photos will probably be scarce over the summer as school's out and so have little to no access to a computer, and I don't know how to resize them on my phone. My younger brother passed away last week after a long illness which is why I've been absent from the forum. Poor Moko has been even more clingy the past few days in response to all the goings ons and me being away from home a lot more than the norm.

Those of you who have talked about your velcro-dogs following you into the bathroom will appreciate this little haiku my fiancee penned on a scrap of newspaper while observing Moko trying to barge in on me (a favorite activity of his until I learned to lock the door...) and after head-butting the door in frustration a few times took out his anxiety on the first item he grabbed.

Moko, dejected
Locked out of bathroom, sigh deep
Distraction, eat hat

Love it ! THalie mopes and sulks if I keep her out of the bathroom.

Sorry to hear about your brother

oh, ok so they all do that, thought it was just him. Sometimes I want walk up to him when he going to the washroom and stare into his eyes.

Also on the weekend I had company, Greg thought it was funny when his brother slip on poo in the backyard not so funny when he did the samething last night.

Sorry to hear about your brother.
Love the haiku!

When Diesel follows me into the bathroom, I just ask him if he wants to have a bath...

That is great!! Good one!!

My sympathies for the loss of your brother. Very sad I'm sure. I wish you peace.

The haiku was wonderful!!! Totally captured the essence of the moment,

Haiku should be required with the photos for the photo contest.

That's a wonderful idea for a contest. A haiku and a photo.
